Products Kuri Tec Reinforced Water Supply & Food Grade Hoses K155 and K6158 Series

Kuri Tec

K155 and K6158 Series

High Purity PVC Potable Water Hose

GENERAL APPLICATIONS

Applications requiring a non-conductive hose
Induction welding tubing lines
Temporary residential water supply lines
Transfer of deionized water
Transfer of potable water
Water transfer lines for semi-conductor manufacturing, where applicable

CONSTRUCTION

Tube – Clear Phthalate Free PVC compound
Reinforcement – High tensile strength yarn
Cover – Phthalate Free PVC compound, available in two solid colors: K6155 (White) and K6158 (Gray). Additional non-toxic colors (Red, Black, Blue, Green, Yellow and Purple) are available on a special order basis

COMPLIANCE INFORMATION

In compliance with applicable FDA⁽⁰³⁾ and NSF⁽¹⁰⁾ certified criteria

SERVICE TEMPERATURE RANGE

+25°F (-4°C) to +150°F (+65°C)

FEATURES AND ADVANTAGES

NSF 51 Certified Hose – Hose certified by NSF for use in food equipment applications. NSF 51 printed directly on hose for easy inspector field verification.
NSF 61 Certified Hose – Hose certified by NSF for use as a drinking water system component. NSF 61 printed directly on hose for easy inspector field verification.
Braided and Longitudinal Fabric Reinforcements – High tensile strength, food grade, polyester yarn braid provides higher working pressures. Yarns also run the length of the hose reducing elongation and improving coupling retention.
UV and Weather Resistant – Opaque cover resists damage from UV light and weather aging.
Algae Growth Resistant – Opaque materials reduces potential for algae growth in warm, sunny environments.
Low Extraction Tube – Extremely low hydrocarbon extraction into water, falls well below the EPA’s maximum contaminant levels for drinking water safety.
Abrasion Resistant PVC – Durable PVC hold up better than rubber air hoses when dragged.
Lightweight – Lighter weight than rubber hoses, reduces worker fatigue.
Non-Perforated, Non-Marking Cover – Can be dragged over flooring without leaving marks typical of rubber hoses.

NOTES:
† Working Pressure decreases as temperature increases. Pressure ratings can only be obtained with proper coupling procedures.
• Use of compression fittings with Kuri Tec® yarn-reinforced hose is not recommended. Claims involving use of these fittings will be disallowed.
